[h3]Ticket to Ride: Japan Expansion gets the digital treatment for the first time![/h3]

Head to the Land of the Rising Sun and meet travel blogger Nakanishi Kimiko and Gyōji Moriyama Isamu, your two new playable characters in Ticket to Ride. Explore Japan, from Hakodate to Naruta and then across to Kokura, aboard the Ichi Eki Saki and Tsuki Sleeper train and carriage, or speed along aboard the Isogaba Maware and Hayai Carriage.



As always, you’re aiming to build your own routes to complete tickets, but in the Japan Expansion, you also have access to the Bullet Train network! This takes the form of a shared pool of train pieces that all players can use to create Bullet Train routes. Any player can use these routes to complete their tickets!

This train is now calling at one of the most diverse, vibrant and creative cities on the planet!

That’s right, Ticket to Ride features in this year’s London Games Festival! In celebration of the 2025 London Games Festival – the event's 10th anniversary – Fireshine Games is delighted to be hosting this event on Steam, and Marmalade Game Studio is proud to have its games featured.

Get Ticket to Ride and other incredible games created by London-based developers and publishers at special prices for the duration of the event, so be sure to check them out.

London Games Festival is part of the Games London initiative, which aims to spotlight the incredible video games created by the city. They do this with a year-round programme of support for local businesses, engagement with investors and funders via inbound and outbound trade missions and delivery of the UK's biggest games event.

[h3]The next expansion for digital Ticket to Ride is on the horizon, and it’s a first for the video game version of the modern classic board game. [/h3]

Ticket to Ride: Japan Expansion will bring a new style of competitive gameplay to the virtual table. Not only will you be competing against other players, but you’ll be working alongside them, too, to build the shared Bullet Train network. This unique mechanic sees everyone work together to create routes that can be used by any player to complete their tickets.

You can, of course, choose to go it alone and not contribute to the Bullet Train routes, but doing so will cost a hefty 20 points!
